Default Cognac, anyone?

Wife and I are headed to Cognac for a day & night this summer and am wondering which tour (Remy Martin, Meukow, Martell, etc.) would be the best for learning about Cognac? Any recommendations would be appreciated. Pineau des Charentes is my wife's preference, so we'll be tippling a bit of that while in the area. Thanks.

Thanks, Craig. Our trip to Nice last week was cancelled due to a family emergency, so this one will takes its place. Week in Brittany followed by a slow drive (many stops, including Cognac) down to Saint-Jean de Luz for another week. Then a week across the border in San Sebastian before heading back for the requisite few days in Paris. Several side trips to places like Pau, Bilbao, Pamplona & Logrono. One of the fun parts of the trip will be the TGV from Bordeaux to Paris. 600km in 2hr & 8m. Almost as fast as your C7.
